    When the king passes suddenly and Princess Rhaenyra ascends the Iron Throne, Alicent Hightower, the former paramour of Viserys, is left in an uncertain position.

    Summary

    “Mother, when is Father returning?”

    Aegon squirmed as his mother pulled a comb through his long unruly blonde locks with a sigh. He had refused to let her cut it in the year since one of his nursemaids had remarked offhandedly how he had become Rhaenyra’s spitting image.

    Summary

    In a last ditch attempt to avoid war after Viserys's death, Alicent visits Rhaenyra with a plot to put her on the Throne. With Rhaenyra's family living at the Red Keep again, they are forced to face their past and find a way forward.

     

    “Two days ago we had dinner together, as a family. And although the children bickered, I could not help but—,” her voice caught in her throat, “—but hope that we could yet repair things.” When Alicent said we, Rhaenyra knew she meant just them. “A day after that, and we were on the brink of war.” She looked up, and Rhaenyra was surprised to see familiar damp eyes. “I’m tired, Rhaenyra. I am very tired. I am tired of forcing my children into roles they do not want. I am tired of fighting for a power I never cared for. And I am exhausted, Rhaenyra, of hating you.”

    Summary

    Nearly ten years after the end of the war, Firelord Zuko is doing the hard, unglamorous work of peace — one negotiation table, one suspicious delegation, and one very long diplomatic dinner at a time.

    He has help. Aang, Katara and Toph believe in him and have stood behind him against those who doubt his motives. And Sokka , Ambassador Sokka, Water Tribe liaison, architect and consultant of more than half the rebuilding efforts and projects - that makes any of this possible, shows up at his door every summit eve, drops into the same chair, and makes the whole thing feel slightly less impossible.

    Then someone puts a Fire Nation blade in Sokka's side.

    Summary

    Kissing Fatin is like a sedative; not in the way where someone’s forcibly injecting some cocktail directly into her bloodstream, but like something that sinks into her gums, makes all the edges and corners of the world look like around, not through; around, not over. Kissing Fatin is the opposite of smoke and mirrors, the opposite of gunpoint, the opposite of pressing her thumb against the sharp side of a knife just to see if it’ll cut.

    Kissing Fatin makes every moment after something to look forward to. It’s so simple, so miniscule, so inconsequential: Life can be good again, if she lets it.

    Summary

    Maybe she prefers Lizzie because her love is the same as Hope’s, volatile and dangerous: fated to blow up.

    Maybe that’s why when Landon is kind and sweet to her, it doesn’t sit well with her, perhaps she doesn’t love herself enough to be kind to herself either.

    also known as: Hope shouldn't have thought that finding her sun and epic love was going to be as easy as her mother had let her believe.

    Summary

    UPDATED as of 15/11/2020 with Chapter 2: Tenzin and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Morning

    “It’s good to see Korra so happy, and about time too. I swear, Asami’s been filing false reports with that girl since the new airbenders showed up.”

    Tenzin followed Kya's gaze out into the courtyard, where Korra was taking a break from practising her forms to lie with her head in Asami’s lap. It was good to see her happy, so he simply hummed in agreement and went back to the scroll he was reading. Kya said a lot of things that Tenzin didn't understand, and he’d learned that asking her about them usually ended in ridicule, so on this occasion, he decided against it.

    In hindsight, asking would have saved him a lot of stress.

    Summary

    She banishes the Wizard and imprisons Madame Morrible. She disbands the Gale Force and places Fiyero's murderers on trial at the Hall of Justice. She has her staff gather all of the Wicked Witch propaganda within the palace and orders it to be incinerated. She issues a proclamation denouncing discrimination against the Animals, and rallies the League of Governors to repeal anti-Animal legislation across Oz.

    However. There is one thing she hasn't quite figured out.

    "Glinda?" Pfannee steps into her office. "Dorothy's asking for you again."

    Glinda's forehead hits her desk with a resolute thud. "Oz help me," she groans. "Tell her to go away."

    Or: After the Melting, Glinda puts herself back together through sheer force of will. There's work to be done, and she is the one person who can do it all.

    Summary

    Trinity opens her mouth to say something and then snaps it closed again, certain that she heard Samira wrong. Because there was definitely no way that Samira Mohan just said that she would be Trinity’s date to her high school best friend’s wedding. It’s a bad idea for a million different reasons, but first and foremost, “I don’t think you understand. I made it sound like I was dating someone. They think I’m going to be bringing my girlfriend.”

    “Okay,” Samira replies without taking even a second to consider it, which makes Trinity feel more than a little dizzy. Maybe she needs to sit down. “What’s the problem? You don’t think I can pull it off? Am I not your type?”

    A strangled sounding laugh bubbles past Trinity’s lips before she can stop it, her gaze dropping down the length of Samira’s body and back up again. “That’s absolutely not the problem here.”

     

    or, samira volunteers to be trinity's date to a wedding.

    Summary

    “Do you want to fill out that super sexy HR paperwork with me, baby?” Trinity asked as she peppered kisses across Samira’s face, down her neck.

    “Hm…” Samira drew the sound out like she had to consider it even as she arched into Trinity’s touch.

    “Because I want to fill out that paperwork with you,” Trinity paused to suck gently at Samira’s pulse point, making her shudder. “I’m getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it.”

    “Shut up,” Samira said with a breathy laugh, tilting her head so that she could capture Trinity’s lips with her own. “Yes, I’d like to fill out the HR paperwork with you,” she said, leaning her forehead against Trinity’s.

    Walsh scoffs. “Don’t make this weird. You’re in your last year of residency and trying to manage housing is a big stressor that I can take off your plate.” She pauses, biting her lip. Samira’s eyes fall, involuntarily, to the action. “But, if it makes you uncomfortable, I can see if—”

    “I’ll take it.”

    Walsh blinks. “Great.” She nods. “Okay. I thought that would be a much harder sell.”

    Summary

    The memories of the Melting wouldn’t leave her, and neither did the grief. Glinda tried everything she could to fall asleep: switching rooms, rubbing lavender lotion on her hands, even drinking a foul tasting concoction that one of her handmaidens swore would put her to sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow (it didn’t). And even when she did manage to fall asleep sometime just before dawn, Elphaba’s screams jarred her awake. 

    So one night Glinda found herself sitting at the desk in her study with a blank sheet of paper in front of her. Dear Elphaba, she wrote, and then watched the words waver at the top of the page. She crossed them out and started over. Dearest Elphaba . It was ridiculous. Elphaba would never read her words again. But she found that they came anyway, faster than she could commit them to paper. 

    Or: Glinda begins writing letters to Elphaba in the aftermath of the Melting. When she pushes herself beyond the point of exhaustion four years later, Chistery decides to take matters into his own hands and deliver the letters to Elphaba in an attempt to save Glinda's life.

    “Let me get this straight,” Santos says, flat and disbelieving. “No one you’ve fucked has ever made you come?”

    Samira glares at her, flushed with embarrassment. “Say it a little louder, why don’t you? The people upstairs might not have heard.”

    "Samira,” Santos says, shaking her head. “This is a crime that should earn your exes fifty to life, no parole. Getting you off would be a fucking privilege.” A beat, and then: “Shit, if you ever want a hand with that, you could just ask me.”
